| 13:03.58 | kevinO | is there anyway to run this bot without root access priveleges? i cant install required perl modules cause i cant use apt-get |
| 13:27.38 | kevinO | hello I am getting this error when trying to run setup.pl |
| 13:27.39 | kevinO | Can't locate src/logger.pl in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i686-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.2 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at ./setup.p |
| 13:27.39 | kevinO | l line 6. |
| 13:27.39 | kevinO | [nexgenwe@vps setup]$ |
| 14:19.52 | Detoks | why infobot is developed so slowly? |
| 14:20.16 | Detoks | and why this channel is so dead? |
| 14:22.15 | kevinO | i would assume that if more people needed bots, that this channel would be more active, and the chances of some of those new people being developers is fairly decent :) |
| 14:47.38 | troubled | kevinO: make sure you ware in the base dir when you run setup.pl. You should be in the same dir as infobot's main executable |
| 14:48.41 | kevinO | troubled, i wont be able to install any of the required perl modules on my server due to lack of permissions, is there any way to get around that? |
| 14:48.42 | troubled | kevinO: you should be able to run cpan to install stuff locally, although I am not 100% sure that the includes are setup to check local installs though. something I haven't tried yet myself |
| 14:51.27 | troubled | it looks like the current directory is in your @INC though, but that probably means you would need to play around with symlinks and similar to get your home dir perl stuff in a findable position for the bot. Not 100% sure the @INC can be set via env var though |
| 14:51.50 | troubled | try it, but let me know if you do |
| 14:52.22 | kevinO | troubled, ca you describe what @INC means? |
| 14:52.31 | kevinO | s/ca/can* |
| 14:52.36 | troubled | its the path perl searches for modules in |
| 14:52.40 | kevinO | k |
| 14:52.48 | troubled | like $PATH, but for perl |
| 14:52.56 | kevinO | cool |
| 14:53.29 | kevinO | i have never used cpan before, is it like apt-get? |
| 14:53.34 | troubled | basically |
| 14:54.17 | troubled | its more like apt-get for sid, you never know if you are going to get brakage from cpan or not |
| 14:54.44 | troubled | sid being unstable debian in case you a ubuntubian ;) |
| 14:54.50 | troubled | you're |
| 14:55.01 | kevinO | for cpan, do i want to setup auto-commit? |
| 14:55.18 | troubled | doesn't ring a bell. does it not explain it? |
| 14:55.48 | troubled | I don't generally use cpan much, so #perl might be a better place. I tend to prefer the distro packages for perl modules myself |
| 14:55.58 | kevinO | Normally CPAN.pm keeps config variables in memory and changes need to be saved in a separate 'o conf commit' command to make them permanent between sessions. If you set the 'auto_commit' option to true, changes to a config variable are always automatically committed to disk. |
| 14:56.19 | kevinO | ok :) |
| 14:56.22 | troubled | sounds like a good thing :) |
| 14:56.27 | kevinO | cool |
| 14:57.44 | troubled | Detoks: our development speed is directly proportional to demand and funding ;) |
| 14:58.16 | troubled | although serious bugs tend to get addressed sooner rather than later |
| 14:58.50 | troubled | but the whole code base at this point could be considered a bug :) so some stuff is known but being held off until we decide to hammer out a rewrite |
| 15:02.48 | troubled | anyways, im outta here for a bit. just spam your stuff in here and I will read it later. l8r |
| 15:02.59 | kevinO | thanks |
| 15:04.23 | kevinO | i cannot find those required packages in cpan either?? |
| 15:04.39 | kevinO | like libnet-irc-perl |
